Austin Gets Batty
Hey what’s up. I hope you missed me as much as I missed all of you. I just got back from spending a wonderful week having non-stop rad fun in south Texas with my sister, Keven (or in Espanol: “Quevan,” as I am now calling her). We basically wore ourselves to nubs being shameless tourists, but it was worth it. One of my favorite things we did together while in Texas was cruising out onto Austin’s LadyBird Lake close to sunset and watching 800,000 small bats fly out from under the Congress Avenue Bridge. Seriously, that was just insane. Anyway, Texas (San Antonio in particular) is awesome. You should go there for a vacation, and tell them I sent you.
Sounds like a blast, Gail. I’ve watched bats like that in Gainesville. Seriously cool.
Seeing the bats come out from under the Congress St. bridge was always the highlight of my SXSW excursions. The Gainesville bats are pretty spiffy, too.
